Where to start... With the total, utter and complete deterioration of any coherent timeline with the careless anachronisms of Enterprise, I often look at this book and sigh. A coherent, believable progression from Eugenics Wars to Warp Drive to Federation, a suggestion that early space travel was much different than life on a twenty-third or twenty-forth century starship- this is what the chronology offered. In every particular, the Chronology agrees with established (pre-Voyager) canon, and, more importantly, with the vision of Trek. I was against Enterprise because I knew that the creaters (B&B) were too lazy to follow this timeline, and most definitely too lazy to make up a better one.
